It doesn't.

Latitude is geography, distance from the equator, and doesn't affect air pressure. Might affect temperature though.

However, air pressure decreases with increased altitude =height above sea level.

The higher you go, the less air is there above you, pushing down.

Air density decreases with elevation increase. Is there an equation to make this calulation?

as you increase elevation (height above sea level0the density of the air decreases.


What happens to the density of air molecules as you increase in altitude?

As you increase in altitude, the density of air molecules decreases. This is because the air pressure decreases with increasing altitude, leading to a lower concentration of air molecules in a given volume of space.


Why density of air decreases with increase in height?

The density of air decreases with increasing altitude because air at high altitudes is under less pressure.


What does air pressure do when altitude increases?

Air pressure decreases with increase of height.


Does air pressure increase as you go towards the center of a hurricane?

No. Air pressure decreases.


Does the density of the air increase as altitude increases?

The density of air decreases with increasing altitude.


When you get higher what happens to air pressure?

As you increase in altitude, the air pressure decreases. This is because the higher you go, the fewer air molecules are present above you, leading to lower pressure. In general, air pressure decreases by about 1 atmosphere for every 10,000 feet increase in altitude.


Does air temperature increase or decrese as a cold front moves into the area?

it decreases


Does air pressure increase or decrease as you move up into the atmosphere?

Air pressure decreases as you go up.


Why does density of air decrease with increase in height?

The density of air decreases with an increase in height due to the decrease in pressure and temperature with altitude. As you go higher in the atmosphere, there are fewer air molecules present, leading to lower air density.


When the diaphragm contracts the air pressure increases or decreases?

When the diaphragm contracts, it decreases the pressure in the chest cavity, allowing air to rush into the lungs to inflate them. This creates an increase in air pressure outside the body as air is drawn in.


When pressure decreases dose volume increase or decrease?

Think of a balloon. Let some air out and the pressure goes down, and the balloon decreases in size.
